|
What is ORM?
|
a process used to identify and manage hazards that endanger naval resources
|
|
The ORM Process
|
(IAMIS)
-Identify hazards -Assess hazards -Make risk decisions -Implement controls -Supervise |
|
Classes of Mishaps
|
-Class A: property damage is $2 mil or more; or an injury/illness results in fatality/permanent total disability
-Class B: property/material damage is $500k or more, but less than $2 mil; or an injury/illness results in permanent partial disability; or three or more personnel are inpatient hospitalized. -Class C: material or property damage is $50k or more, but less than $500k; a non-fatal injury/illness that causes any loss of time beyond the day occurred. (Results in 5 or more lost workdays beyond the date of injury/illness) |

PPE program
|
established as a last line of defense in the event of equipment breakdown, failure, or hazards

|
Chemical Warfare and
Types of Chemical Agents |
*chemical agents used in military operations to kill, seriously injure, or incapacitate
-Nerve Agents (liquid) disrupt nerve impulses while damaging body functions -Blister Agents (liquid or solid) inflammation, blisters, and general destruction of tissues which often results in temporary blindness and/or death -Blood Agents (gas) attack the enzymes carrying oxygen in the blood stream -Choking Agents (gas) can cause tears, dry throat, nausea, vomiting, and headache |
|
M9 Chemical Agent Detector Paper
|
Detects the presence of liquid chemical agents by turning a reddish color, it does not detect chemical agent vapors
|
|
Atropine/2-PAM-chloride Auto Injector
|
Used as specific therapy for nerve agent casualties
|
|
Biological Warfare
|
the use of agents to cause disease, sickness, or death to reduce the effectiveness of opposing combatant forces
|
|
Basic division in biological agents
|
*Pathogens and Toxins
- Pathogens. Include bacteria, rickettsia, viruses, fungi, protozoa and prions. - Toxins. The categorization of toxins is based on the organisms that produce them and the physiological affects the toxins cause in humans. x The major groupings by source are mycotoxins (which are from fungi), bacterial toxins, algal toxins, animal venoms and plant toxins. x The primary groups based on physiological effects are neurotoxins, cytotoxins, enterotoxins and dermatoxins. |
|
Individual Protective Equipment (IPE) for chemical/biological agent environments
|
- Protective mask MCU-2P with components (C-2 canister filter)
- Advanced chemical protective garment (ACPG) - Chemical protective gloves and liners - Chemical protective overboots and laces - Skin decontamination kit |
|
Radiological Warfare
|
the deliberate use of radiological weapons to produce widespread injury and death
|
|
Types of nuclear explosions
|
- High altitude air burst - occurs at altitudes in excess of 100,000 feet, with ionosphere disruptions and EMP.
- Air burst where fireball does not reach the surface. The vacuum created collects debris caused by the severe blast damage resulting in radiation fallout. - Surface Burst has the worst fallout due to the fireball touching the surface which results in massive radioactive fallout. - Shallow underwater burst has a small fireball and blast wave, causes large waves and water contamination. - Deep underwater burst - similar to shallow underwater burst but with less visual effect and yields greater contaminated water. |
|
Shipboard shielding stations are categorized as...
|
- Ready-shelter stations: inside the weather envelope, with access to deep shelter. Provides minimum shielding from nuclear radiation and allows the crew to remain close to battle stations.
- Deep-shelter stations: low in the ship and near the centerline. Provide max shielding from nuclear radiation, often requiring personnel to be far removed from battle stations. |
|
DT-60 dosimeter
|
a non-self reading high range casualty dosimeter, when placed in a special radiac computer-indicator, determines the amount of gamma radiation to which the wearer is exposed in the 0-600 roentgens
|
|
Mission Oriented Protective Posture (MOPP)
|
MOPP is a management tool that is used to coordinate the use of systems and equipment in Chemical or Biological environment
